STRENGTHS: Very Clever and quick witted, highly responsible, and she's a very quick learner. She's also excellent at non verbal magic, and logical thinking.
PERSONALITY: On the outside, Olivia is very prim and proper. She tries her best not to curse - she is in no way, shape of form a fan of foul language. Crude or rash behavoiur turns her off. She's can be very sweet and inviting, but makes no quarrels about telling someone exactly what she thinks of them.
She is very cunning and munipulative, which comes from being the youngest of three children. Naturally, her parents dotted on her and though they had little money, she always what got what she wanted; and now, she always expects the same. She's very status and money hungry. As a child, her family was considered low class and monetary wise they lay just above the poverty line. Because of this, Olivia would often envy the more off children at school, and promised that one day she'd have the money to do as they did. As a result, Olivia is highly motivated, and hopes, that one day, she'll work for a prestigious ministry job - she's hoping for international magical affairs-- but now she settles for being an intern at the Prophet.
She is often responsible to the point of being neurotic. Olivia is not necessarily uptight, but she does expect order.

AND I’M THE ONLY ONE

MOTHER:Tanya Marsdon; Half blood; 49.
CHILDREN: NONE
OTHER IMPORTANT FAMILY:
Two sisters Diana (27) and Emily (23), brother-in-law Gareth (27) and a niece Daisy (2)
HISTORY:
Olivia Renee Marsdon was born the youngest of three girls to a very low class family with little money. Her father was a muggle-born, and her Mum a half blood. Though rather poor, the family never wanted for much and for the most part, were always content with what they had. Because she was the baby, Olivia was a tad more spoiled than her sisters. She was usually gifted with what she wanted, when she wanted, though not all the time. There were a few times that her parents put their feet down in regards to Olivia's spoiled nature, though they were never overly rash with her.
Olivia has two sisters, Diana, and Emily. As a younger child, Olivia was the spoiled child, but also a very prim and proper kid. While her sister Emily was rough housing, and running around, Olivia was inside playing with her Dolls or reading a book. She loved to read, anything and everything. Often, more than not, she and Emily clashed personality wise. Olivia would be reading a book, or doing something soft and quiet in nature, when Emily would barrel through, offsetting Olivia. The two sisters are complete polar opposites. Olivia feels as if Emily doesn't act her age, ever. She could never understand why Emily always had to be brash, loud, and constantly excited. When Emily was outside chasing her creatures, Olivia would watch in disdain. Diana and Olivia, on the other hand, got along much better. Diana made sure to keep things level between her younger sisters.
When Olivia started Hogwarts at the age of eleven, she was sorted into the house of Ravenclaw, though she and the hat had a very intriguing discussion regards to this. The hat saw that within young Olivia lay a thirst and need to prove herself; the hat suggested Slytherin, but Liv refused, she knew that there hadn't been a witch or wizard that went bad that wasn't in Slytherin. Instead, she took this thirst as a challenge, and sought to prove herself academically. All the while, Emily was busy discovering boys and rebelling. Emily's rebellions were often a sour point for younger Olivia who resided in her sister's shadow. Emily was known as being the fun and wild one, where as Liv was the uptight tease.
During her fourth year, Emily's seventh, Emily and her long time boyfriend Digger Powell split, and Emily dated rebound guys. One of those rebound guys just so happened to be a guy that Olivia fancied, though she'd never told anyone - not even her best friend Lizbeth (Lizbeth was a fellow Ravenclaw - pureblood - that had befriended Liv. Unlike Liv, Liz was gifted with money and lived as so. She's treat Liv whenever she felt like it. Which was a double edge sword for Liv who loved the extravagance, but hated feeling like she was begging).
She was crushed when Emily dated, snogged, then left this boy never giving it a second thought. In turn, Liv had her own rebound with a seventeen year old name Paulo Roman. It'd been the first time Olivia had ever been drunk and she ended up sleeping with him, much to her own dismay. She'd vowed to remain a proper woman until marriage, but failed. To this day, she still doesn't forgive herself, though she doesn't refrain from sex, either.
Livvie spent the next three years pushing herself as hard as possible and finally graduating at the top of her class. She made prefect during her fifth year and dated a couple of boys. She also managed to make a name outside of her sisters shadows. Her parents, who -unbeknown to Olivia- had saved their pennies and afforded a trip for Olivia to Paris, the city she'd loved for so long. Liv was attracted to the glitz and the glamor of the city. She went to Paris and fell in love with the lights and the wonder. Though she had little money to go on, she still had a wonderful time.
At 18,her eldest sister had a daughter, Daisy. Quickly, Daisy became the center of everyone's universe, and though she was no longer the baby, Livvie loved her too. She loves to dress her and treat her like a princess, and promises that one day, Daisy will have the things that Liv wanted as a younger girl, like a tiara. After returning to Britain, Liv began pursuing her career goals. She became a low level clerk at Gringotts, but soon found no upwardly mobile opportunities, so she took to interning at the Daily Prophet. Much to her dismay, around this time, she found that her sister Emily had been afforded a teaching position at Hogwarts. A long dormant jealous gene reared it's ugly head once more, and Liv went into over drive. She couldn't understand who Emily -who never did anything that didn't have the word fun in it - was given a teaching job.
She is now a paid intern at the Daily prophet, but plans on applying for a position in the ministry under international magical and muggle law. She hasn't applied quite yet because she's been told she needs more work experience. She did however receive all O's in both her OWLS and NEWTS.
